Major US stock indices rose slightly, helped by a rise in the industrial goods sector, a rise in technology stocks, and positive earnings reports.
Investors also expected clues as to whether the Federal Reserve would raise rates in the future. It is expected that tomorrow the regulator will raise rates to 2.25-2.50% from 2.00-2.25% and only slightly adjust its economic forecasts. Despite this, the Fed is likely to abandon claims of "further gradual increase" in interest rates due to a change in its position of waiting. Most likely, the forecast of the Fed management will assume two more rate increases in 2019, rather than three, as expected in September.
In addition, the focus was on data on the US housing market. As it became known, US housing construction was restored in November, caused by a surge in multi-unit housing projects, but the construction of single-family homes fell to a 1-1 / 2-year low, indicating a deepening weakness in the housing market, which could spread to a wider economy. The Commerce Department said on Tuesday that bookmarking new homes increased by 3.2% in November, seasonally adjusted to 1.256 million units on an annualized basis.
WTI oil prices collapsed more than 7% on Tuesday after reports of increased stocks and forecasts of record production in the US and Russia, combined with sharp sell-offs in stock markets due to worsening global growth prospects.
Most of the components of DOW recorded an increase (17 of 30). The growth leader was the shares of The Boeing Company (BA, + 4.40%). The outsider was Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM, -2.21%).
Most sectors of the S & P ended in a plus. The growth leader was the industrial goods sector (+ 1.2%). The base materials sector fell the most (-1.1%).

I hope the people over at the Fed will read today’s Wall Street Journal Editorial before they make yet another mistake. Also, don’t let the market become any more illiquid than it already is. Stop with the 50 B’s. Feel the market, don’t just go by meaningless numbers. Good luck!
Carrefour is the French retailer the most affected by the yellow-vest protests in France, with estimated losses of up to EUR150 million, Bryan Garnier says. The bill should be significant for retailers, the brokerage says, but not as alarming as estimates provided by other organizations. Retailers Casino, Maisons du Monde and Fnac Darty should suffer fewer losses than Carrefour. However, the movement could have an even greater impact on the businesses' EBIT with possible losses at this level for Carrefour, BG forecasts. Carrefour shares are down 0.58% at EUR14.53. - via WSJ
The ifo Business Climate Index fell to 101.0 points in December from 102.0 points in November. Companies were less satisfied with their current business situation. Their business expectations also continued to deteriorate. The German economy faces a lean festive season.
In manufacturing the business climate index fell markedly. This was primarily due to manufacturers’ business expectations, which turned negative for the first time since May 2016. In line with these developments, manufacturers scaled back their production plans. Their assessments of the current business situation also deteriorated slightly, but nevertheless remain at a high level.

Business confidence rose 13 points in December. Firms’ views of their own activity lifted 6 points.
Expected profitability and employment, investment and export intentions rose, and perceived availability of credit jumped sharply. Marring the picture a little, most indicators for the agriculture sector deteriorated.
In the December ANZ Business Outlook Survey headline business confidence lifted meaningfully. That said, it remains in the red, with a net 24% of respondents reporting they expect general business conditions to deteriorate in the year ahead. More importantly, firms’ perceptions of their own activity rose 6 points to a net 14% expecting a lift. The construction sector continued to be the most optimistic at +22%. The retail sector remains the least positive (1.9%).
"It is incredible that with a very strong dollar and virtually no inflation, the outside world blowing up around us, Paris is burning and China way down, the Fed is even considering yet another interest rate hike," Mr. Trump tweeted. "Take the Victory!"
This is mainly due to weak domestic demand, which is likely to pick up again only in 2020. GDP is set to grow by 1.5% in 2019 and by 1.7% in 2020.
After five quarters of strong growth, the Swiss economy slowed abruptly in the 3rd quarter and economic output contracted by 0.2%. In the wake of the decline in international growth, Swiss foreign trade decreased. The appreciation of the Swiss franc in the meantime additionally slowed exports, while domestic demand also failed to stimulate growth.
The Expert Group forecasts that both the export and domestic economies will return to moderate growth after the weak 3rd quarter. However, the strong GDP growth rates of the first half of 2018 will no longer be achieved. Leading indicators at home and abroad also point in this direction. Nevertheless, due to the strong first half of the year, GDP growth for 2018 overall is likely to come in well above average at 2.6% (September forecast: 2.9%).
Today I am making good on my promise to defend our Farmers & Ranchers from unjustified trade retaliation by foreign nations. I have authorized Secretary Perdue to implement the 2nd round of Market Facilitation Payments. Our economy is stronger than ever–we stand with our Farmers!
